Guy at the farmers market changed how I brew my morning coffee
Ran into this older gentleman at the Portland farmers market last Saturday who was selling beans from a small roastery I'd never heard of. He asked what I used to brew and when I said my usual drip machine, he just shook his head and handed me a paper cone filter. He said, 'Try it with a simple pour-over setup and tell me if the beans taste different.' I bought a $6 plastic dripper that day and honestly, the flavor difference in my cup the next morning was huge. Has anyone else had a random stranger completely reroute their coffee routine?

Man, that's pretty cool. A total stranger just handed you a better coffee life, no strings attached. I gotta respect the confidence it takes to tell someone their whole setup is wrong.

Knew a coworker who switched to a french press after a random guy at a park bench told him his drip was ruining the taste.
